Hello, faithful reader. I just wanted to let you know that my first novel is out in ebook form on Amazon here. I’d love it if you check it out. Here’s the blurb:

What would you do if you were literally dying from lack of sleep? That’s what happens to Lee Fenton. A young, successful author, he seems to have it good. His books sell, and because of them he is well off and doesn’t have to work a 9-5 job.

But then, one day, he starts having a particularly bad bout of insomnia. It gets bad enough that he has to go to the doctor. The doctor tells him something terrible: that he has a rare, terminal form of insomnia called Fatal Familial Insomnia. He will sleep less and less until finally he won’t be able sleep at all, going insane and dying shortly thereafter.

Deciding to make the most of the time he has left, Lee buys a luxury RV, hires his best friend as his driver, and sets out on a trip across the United States. They meet a couple of girls along the way who join their journey, and for a short time things look bright again.

But as he sleeps less and less, Lee starts to see things, awful visions. There’s something following them, something evil and relentless…and it wants them all.

A story of terror, friendship, romance, and America, through the eyes of our new Lost Generation of twenty-somethings.

For my blog readers, if you’ve gotten this far down and are still interested, I’ll send you the book for free. All I ask is that you consider leaving me a review on Amazon and/or Goodreads. Take care everyone!

I’m sure I will – I looked at the sample beginning on amazon and it was instantly compelling. It may take a while to read all the way through as I’m mega busy at the moment but I’ll let you know when I have and I’ll do a review and let you know what nickname it will appear under. Best of luck with it! Such a fascinating idea!! 🙂 It’s exactly my favourite type of book/genre and I can tell I’m going to love it already, just for that originality of idea alone!!!

Hi Matthew – sorry it’s taken so long but I finally had some time to just relax and read this weekend, so I read your novel. Loved it! Just gave it a review on Amazon – they say they are ‘processing’ the review now so not sure how quickly it shows up, but when it does it is under the nickname HelenKid for reasons too complex to go into here.

Anyway, really enjoyed the book – very clever, and you definitely have a future as a horror writer if you want!! 🙂

You’re welcome! I’m just sorry it took so long but my spare time is rarely really spare at the moment!! i really enjoyed the novel. It was a pleasure to read. I look forward to more novels from you in the future! 🙂
